Chemically Dual-Modified Biochar for the Effective Removal of Cr(VI) in Solution.

ABSTRACT: Here, a dual-modification strategy using KMnO₄ (potassium permanganate) and AlCl₃·6H₂O (aluminum chloride, hexahydrate) as co-modifiers to improve the Cr(VI) removal capacity of K₂CO₃ activated biochar is introduced. As a result, the dual-modified biochar with KMnO₄ and AlCl₃·6H₂O has the calculated adsorption energy of -0.52 eV and -1.64 eV for HCrO₄^-, and -0.21 eV and -2.01 eV for Cr₂O₇^2-. The Al₂O₃ (aluminum oxide) and MnO (manganese oxide) embedded on the surface of dual-modified biochar bring more Cr(VI) absorption sites comparing to single-modified biochar, resulting in a maximum Cr(VI) saturated adsorption capacity of 152.86 mg g^-¹. The excellent removal performance is due to the synthetic effect of electrostatic attraction, reduction reaction, complexation reaction, and physical adsorption. The experimental results also indicated that the spontaneous adsorption process agreed well with the pseudo-second order and Langmuir models. This dual-modification strategy is not limited to the treatment of Cr(VI) with biochar, and may also be incorporated with the treatment of other heavy metals in aqueous environment.

Effective removal of Cr(vi) from aqueous solution by biochar supported manganese sulfide.

Project description:In order to remove hexavalent chromium (Cr(vi)) efficiently and simplify the adsorbent preparation process, we employed a single step method to prepare a new biochar supported manganese sulfide material. The nanoscale MnS particles were highly soldered on the biochar support surface, and this adsorbent displayed the effective removal of Cr(vi) (98.15 mg L-1) via synergistic effect between adsorption and reduction/precipitation under weak acid conditions (pH = 5.0-6.0). The adsorption kinetic data were described well by the pseudo second-order kinetic model, suggesting that the reaction process was a chemisorption process. The adsorption isotherm data were described well by the Redlich-Peterson model, further suggesting that this reaction was a hybrid chemical reaction-sorption process. In addition, the Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherm model with 8.28, 8.57, and 12.91 kJ mol-1 adsorption energy also suggests that it was a chemisorption process. The simple and eco-friendly preparation process, low-cost, and the high removal efficiency could make it a promising material for the purification of Cr(vi)-contaminated wastewater.

Removal of Cr(VI) from aqueous solution using ball mill modified biochar: multivariate modeling, optimization and experimental study.

Project description:Chromium (Cr(VI)) pollution has attracted wide attention due to its high toxicity and carcinogenicity. Modified biochar has been widely used in the removal of Cr(VI) in water as an efficient and green adsorbent. However, the existing biochar prepared by chemical modification is usually complicated in process, high in cost, and has secondary pollution, which limits its application. It is urgent to explore modified biochar with simple process, low cost and environmental friendliness. Therefore, ball milling wheat straw biochar (BM-WB) was prepared by ball milling technology in this paper. The adsorption characteristics and mechanism of Cr(VI) removal by BM-WB were analyzed by functional group characterization, adsorption model and response surface method. The results showed that ball milling effectively reduced the particle size of biochar, increased the specific surface area, and more importantly, enhanced the content of oxygen-containing functional groups on the surface of biochar. After ball milling, the adsorption capacity of Cr(VI) increased by 3.5-9.1 times, and the adsorption capacity reached 52.21 mg/g. The adsorption behavior of Cr(VI) follows the pseudo-second-order kinetics and Langmuir isotherm adsorption model rate. Moreover, the Cr(VI) adsorption process of BM-WB is endothermic and spontaneous. Under the optimized conditions of pH 2, temperature 45 °C, and adsorbent dosage 0.1 g, the removal rate of Cr(VI) in the solution can reach 100%. The mechanism of Cr(VI) adsorption by BM-WB is mainly based on electrostatic attraction, redox and complexation. Therefore, ball milled biochar is a cheap, simple and efficient Cr(VI) removal material, which has a good application prospect in the field of remediation of Cr(VI) pollution in water.

Effective Removal of Cr(VI) from Wastewater Using Biochar Derived from Walnut Shell.

Project description:Heavy metals are the major concern of the modern age. Among the heavy metals, chromium (Cr(VI)) is regarded as a highly toxic heavy metal released largely from leather tanning operations. To remove such high concentrations of Cr(VI), an advanced method is required urgently. Thus, biosorption using biochar, which is an organic material produced from various sources such as walnut shell, can be applied successfully for Cr(VI) abatement. The major objectives of this experiment were the remediation of the Cr(VI) heavy metal using walnut shell biochar and checking of the effect of pH, biochar dosage, Cr level, and shaking time. Remediation of Cr(VI) using walnut shell biochar was proved to be effective and removed the maximum concentration of Cr(VI) up to 93% at pH 5.5, 2 h agitation time, and the biochar amount of 1.1 g L-1 from an aqueous solution. Equilibrium modeling demonstrated that the chemisorption process was involved in adsorption of Cr(VI). The surface of the biochar was porous and provided numerous sites for Cr(VI) attachment, which was also confirmed by the presence of Cr(VI) onto the biochar after adsorption. Hence, the use of walnut shell biochar was highly effective as a sorbent, which could conveniently be applied to small-scale as well as large-scale levels.

Removal Performance of KOH-Modified Biochar from Tropical Biomass on Tetracycline and Cr(VI).

Project description:Biochar can be used to address the excessive use of tetracycline and micronutrient chromium (Cr) in wastewater that potentially threatens human health. However, there is little information about how the biochar, made from different tropical biomass, facilitates tetracycline and hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) removal from aqueous solution. In this study, biochar was prepared from cassava stalk, rubber wood and sugarcane bagasse, then further modified with KOH to remove tetracycline and Cr(VI). Results showed that pore characteristics and redox capacity of biochar were improved after modification. KOH-modified rubber wood biochar had the highest removal of tetracycline and Cr(VI), 1.85 times and 6 times higher than unmodified biochar. Tetracycline and Cr(VI) can be removed by electrostatic adsorption, reduction reaction, π-π stacking interaction, hydrogen bonding, pore filling effect and surface complexation. These observations will improve the understanding of the simultaneous removal of tetracycline and anionic heavy metals from wastewater.

Characterization, kinetic, and isotherm data for Cr (VI) removal from aqueous solution by Populus alba biochar modified by a cationic surfactant.

Project description:Populus alba is fast and auto- growing tree which profoundly accessible in around the world. The usage of the wastes of this tree would be admirable from environmental and solid waste management point of view. Thus, herein, this data set presents a facile method for providing an adsorbent from wastes of P. alba tree. The prepared adsorbent was modified by the cationic surfactant of (C16H33)N(CH3)3Br and applied to remove Cr (VI) from aqueous solution. The characterization data of the modified adsorbent were analyzed using FTIR and SEM methods. The information regarding kinetics, isotherms, and thermodynamics of chromium ions adsorption were listed. The data implied that the maximum adsorption capacity of adsorbent to uptake Cr (VI) from aqueous solution was obtained 52.63 mg/g. The acquired data indicated that the adsorption of Cr (VI) by the adsorbent prepared from P. alba is an promising technique for treating Cr-bearing wastewaters.

Removal of aqueous Cr(VI) by magnetic biochar derived from bagasse.

Project description:We prepared a novel adsorbent functionalized by bagasse magnetic biochar (BMBC). To study the removal behaviors and mechanisms of Cr(VI) by BMBC, batch adsorption experiments were conducted by modifying variables, such as pH, adsorption time, BMBC dosages, initial Cr concentration, co-existing ions, and ionic strength, and characterizing BMBC before and after Cr(VI) adsorption. BMBC was primarily composed of Fe2O3 and Fe3O4 on bagasse boichar with an amorphous structure. The specific surface area of BMBC was 81.94 m2 g-1, and the pHpzc of BMBC was 6.2. The fabricated BMBC showed high adsorption performance of Cr(VI) in aqueous solution. The maximum Cr(VI) adsorption capacity of BMBC was 29.08 mg g-1 at 25 ºC, which was much higher than that of conventional biochar sorbents. The adsorption process followed pseudo-second-order kinetics and could be explained by the involvement of the Langmuir isotherm in monolayer adsorption. The crystalline structure of Fe3O4 in the BMBC changed slightly during the adsorption process; Fe3O4 improved the adsorption of Cr(VI) on BMB. The desorption capacity of Cr(VI) was 8.21 mg g-1 when 0.2 mol L-1 NaOH was used as the desorption solution. After being reused three times, the removal efficiency is still as high as 80.36%.

Removal of Cr(vi) in wastewater by Fe-Mn oxide loaded sludge biochar.

Project description:Sludge biochar loaded with Fe-Mn oxides (FMBC) was prepared and employed to remove Cr(vi) from wastewater. The influences of solution pH, co-existing ion, contact time, adsorption temperature and Cd(vi) concentrations on removing Cr(vi) by FMBC were investigated. The Cr(vi) adsorption on FMBC had strong pH dependence. Additionally, Na+, Mg2+, Ca2+, SiO32-, NO3- and Cl- ions exhibited no influence on Cr(vi) removal efficiency for FMBC, whereas there were inhibition effects of Pb2+, Cu2+, Ni2+, CO32-, SO42-, and PO43- on removing Cr(vi). The Cr(vi) adsorption from solution for FMBC was well described by models of pseudo-second-order and Langmuir, and the largest Cr(vi) removal capacity of FMBC reached 172.3 mg g-1. FMBC had good capacity for treating electroplating wastewater and mineral dissolving wastewater containing Cr(vi). After five regenerations, the 50 and 5 mg L-1 Cr(vi) removing efficiency of FMBC was 82.34% and 97.68%, respectively. The Cr(vi) removal for FMBC involved adsorption-reduction and re-adsorption of Cr(iii) generated by reduction. These results indicated that FMBC has good prospects for remediating Cr(vi)-containing wastewater.

Synthesis and characterization of magnetic biochar adsorbents for the removal of Cr(VI) and Acid orange 7 dye from aqueous solution.

Project description:In this study, different types of magnetic biochar nanocomposites were synthesized using the co-precipitation method. Two biochar materials, namely, sewage sludge biochar and woodchips biochar, were prepared at two different temperatures, viz., 450 and 700 °C. These biochars were further modified with magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4). The modified biochar nanocomposites were characterized using field emission-scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), SQUID analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The potential of prepared adsorbents was examined for the removal of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) and Acid orange 7 (AO7) dye from water as a function of various parameters, namely, contact time, pH of solution, amount of adsorbents, and initial concentrations of adsorbates. Various kinetic and isotherm models were tested to discuss and interpret the adsorption mechanisms. The maximum adsorption capacities of modified biochars were found as 80.96 and 110.27 mg g-1 for Cr(VI) and AO7, respectively. Magnetic biochars showed high pollutant removal efficiency after 5 cycles of adsorption/desorption. The results of this study revealed that the prepared adsorbents can be successfully used for multiple cycles to remove Cr(VI) and AO7 from water. Graphical Abstract.

Influence of Synthesis Methods on the High-Efficiency Removal of Cr(VI) from Aqueous Solution by Fe-Modified Magnetic Biochars.

Project description:Fe-modified biochars have been widely used in removal of Cr(VI) from water due to the resulting modified surface functional groups and magnetization property. However, few studies have synthetically investigated modification methods and synthesis parameters on the improvement of the removal efficiency of Cr(VI) by Fe-modified biochars. Herein, 10 types of corn straw-based magnetic biochars were produced using pre-modification and post-modification methods with various modifier ratios, and the highest heating temperature (HHT). Cr(VI) removal results suggest that the removal efficiency of pre-modified biochars ranged from 50.7 to 98.6%, which was much higher than that of post-modified (6.6-21.6%) and unmodified biochars (0.4-7.6%). The effect of synthesis methods on Cr(VI) adsorption was in the following order: Fe-modification method > modifier ratio > HHT. The adsorption kinetics and isotherm results of three types of pre-modified biochars were well fitted with the pseudo-second-order model (R 2 > 0.99) and the Langmuir adsorption model (R 2 > 0.99), respectively, indicating the surface homogeneity of the pre-modified biochars and unilayer chemisorptions of Cr(VI). Characterization results show that iron oxides or zerovalent iron particles were successfully deposited onto the surface of biochars and magnetism was introduced. A good Pearson correlation (r = -0.9694) between the removal efficiency and pH value in modified biochar suggests that the lower pH value may offer more positive charges and promote electrostatic attraction. Therefore, the dominant mechanism for enhanced Cr(VI) adsorption on pre-modified biochar was electrostatic attraction, resulting from its distinguished acidity nature. Our findings provide new insights into the high-efficiency removal of Cr(VI) onto Fe-modified magnetic biochars and will benefit future design of more efficient magnetic biochars.

Removal of Cr(VI) from Aqueous Solution by Polypyrrole/Hollow Mesoporous Silica Particles.

Project description:Abstract: The removal of Cr(VI) in wastewater plays an important role in human health and environment. In this work, polypyrrole/hollow mesoporous silica particle (PPy/HMSNs) adsorbents have been newly synthesized by in-situ polymerization, which prevent the aggregation of pyrrole in the process of polymerization and exhibit highly selective and powerful adsorption ability for Cr(VI). The adsorption process was in good agreement with the quasi-second-order kinetic model and the Langmuir isotherm model. And the maximum adsorption capacity of Cr(VI) was 322 mg/g at 25 °C. Moreover, the removal rate of Cr(VI) by PPy/HMSNs was ~100% in a number of binary systems, such as Cl-/Cr(VI), NO3-/Cr(VI), SO42-/Cr(VI), Zn2+/Cr(VI), Fe3+/Cr(VI), Sn4+/Cr(VI), and Cu2+/Cr(VI). Thus, the PPy/HMSNs adsorbents have great potential for the removal of Cr(VI) in wastewater.
